Airport director resigns

The first-year director of the Oconee Regional Airport has resigned, and the county has turned to an old hand to guide things while a replacement is found.  County Administrator Scott Moulder announced the resignation last night of Sam Carver, who is returning to Mississippi to take what Moulder called a better pay opportunity.  In the meantime, the county has worked out a contract deal with retired director Kevin Short for him to re-assume duties for a few weeks while the job search process takes place.
